Abstract
PROF. LOEB'S book is very similar in appearance to the well-known Monograph Series of the American Chemical Society; but, although the kinetic theory of gases has always occupied a very important place in physical chemistry, the book is from first to last a ‘text and reference book’ of pure physics.
Kinetic Theory of Gases: being a Text and Reference Book whose Purpose is to Combine the Classical Deductions with Recent Experimental Advances in a Convenient Form for Student and Investigator.
By Prof. Leonard B. Loeb. Pp. xvi + 555. (New York: McGraw-Hill Book Co., Inc.; London: McGraw-Hill Publishing Co., Ltd., 1927.) 27s. 6d. net.
